Product Overview
The Covidien GG-123 Absorbable Suture with Needle is a high-quality surgical suture designed for secure wound closure. Made from chromic gut, this suture is naturally absorbable, minimizing tissue reaction while providing reliable tensile strength during the healing process. The V-20 1/2 circle taper point needle ensures precision and ease of use in various surgical applications.
Features:
- Absorbable Material: Chromic gut suture is treated for delayed absorption, maintaining strength long enough for wound healing.
- Taper Point Needle: The 1/2 circle V-20 needle offers smooth tissue penetration with reduced trauma.
- Reliable Strength: Size 2-0 provides optimal tensile strength for medium to heavy tissue approximation.
- Precision Design: The 1/2 circle needle configuration enhances control during suturing.
Specifications:
- Suture Material: Chromic Gut
- Needle Type: V-20, 1/2 Circle, Taper Point
- Suture Size: 2-0
- Absorption: Naturally absorbed by enzymatic degradation
- Length: Standard suture length
Use Suggestion:
Ideal for general soft tissue approximation, including subcutaneous and mucosal closures in general, ophthalmic, and orthopedic surgeries. Suitable for tissues requiring moderate support during healing. Always follow aseptic techniques and surgeon preference for optimal results.
This suture combines durability, absorbability, and precision for effective wound closure in various surgical procedures.
